Selection NeoGrub from the Windows Boot loader presents the NeoGrub screen of available boot configurations. The XP configuration works OK. The Fedora selection results in a Linux boot but the boot fails with a Sync error. I can see many pages of scrolled screen with what appears to contain some errors.
I have reviewed the "Dual-Booting Fedora Linux and Windows Vista" document and appears not not to apply because it appears that both VISTA and Linux exist on the on the same hard drive.
If I reboot and adjust the BIOS to place SDC as the boot drive Fedora will boot.
Another minor problem I have not been able to boot VISTA from the NeoGrub Menu, I seem to remember some discussion about this problem.
Any suggestions about the boot of Linux NeoGrub problem?
